@Cthulhu980 Hm. There are a few things you can do to help RA2 to run better:
- Make sure to disable Origin In Game overlay in the Origin settings for the game
- Run in winXP SP3 compatibility mode, and make sure to also check the "Run as admin." option
- The graphics system patch DDWrapper is known to solve a bunch of issues related to graphics. Your crash might be related to the DirectX system; you never know, so it's worth a try.
Download the zip file and extract "ddraw.dll" and "aqrit.cfg" into your game folder. Then, open the configuration file "aqrit.cfg" in Notepad, change the "ForceDirectDrawEmulation" option to 1, save the file, and the game should work.
I will give that dd wrapper a shot. Thank you
